The Monsoon Scooter rally, known for its toughness when it comes to slush, water logging and slippery surface, regained its life after years of struggle for not finding a suitable track, sponsors and rains. Sportscraft, Nashik, carries forward the legacy of late Shrikant Karani. The 29 participants who were in fray for this edition of the TVS NTORQ Sportscraft Monsoon Scooter Rally of Nashik 24, ran on a 6.28km stage which was taken on thrice.
Overnight heavy rain and light showers during the rally made the event more exciting and challenging. Shamim Khan riding a TVS NTORQ 125 led this edition of victory parade for TVS Racing as he won the overall tag with a lead of two seconds over his team mate Karthik N who followed him in second. Previous year winner, Mumbaikar Venkatesh Shetty, riding a Aprilia SR150 came third with 26-sec difference.
The Bhopal rider, Muzzaffar Ali, and Tejas Prashant Kadam from Mumbai, both riding a TVS NTORQ 125, finished in fourth and fifth positions respectively.
